Official title
A Randomized Phase II Study of the Combination of 5-Azacytidine With Valproic Acid (VPA) Versus Low-Dose Ara-C in Patients With AML/MDS Not Eligible for Other Studies
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Primary Objective: 1\. To evaluate whether 5 azacytidine (5-aza)/valproic acid (VPA) or low dose ara-C produces longer event free survival time in patients age \> or = 60 years with untreated Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or high risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) who are typically ineligible for, or not placed on, studies of new agents. Secondary Objective: 1\. To evaluate whether pre-treatment methylation/acetylation status in AML/MDS blasts predicts response to either therapy or whether the ability of the 5 azacytidine + valproic acid combination to induce demethylation or acetylation parallels response.
